A grasping tool (10) has a pair of elongate arms (20) attached via a hinge element (26). The elongate arms (20) provide gripping surfaces (28) for grasping an item therebetween. A finger engagement element (30) extends from each of the elongate arms, (20) spaced a distance from the proximal end (22). Each elongate arm (20) is generally disposed on a first axis, and each finger engagement element (30) is disposed around a second axis, such that the second axis is approximately parallel to and located below the first axis, such that the first and second axes are spaced a distance such that the pair of elongate arms (20) are positioned above the fingers of the user when the user's fingers are positioned through the finger engagement elements (30).

Handheld forceps comprising: a body comprising trunk and a first arm and a second arm extending from a base of the trunk coupled at one end and separated from one another at a second end; a rod disposed in the body, the rod comprising a first end positioned in the first arm and a second end positioned in the second arm and forming an apex in the trunk; a compression spring disposed around the apex of the rod in the trunk; and a button coupled to the apex of the rod and protruding through an opening in the trunk. Also a method of using the handheld forceps.

Various embodiments relate generally to surgical instruments, tools, and apparatuses for medical use, including, but not limited to, forceps, tweezers, and pincers, as well as other anatomical tools for surgical and medical uses, and, more specifically, to surgical instruments implementing a coupling member to effectuate multiple pivot axes enhance, for example, effective lengths with which to access an internal surgical site. In some examples, a surgical instrument may include lever members, each of which may include a pivot portion, a force application portion, and a contacting portion. The surgical instrument may also include a coupling member configured to position multiple pivot portions adjacent proximal ends of a first and second lever member to effectuate a closing state at which contacting portions are positioned at a second distance, which is less than the first distance, at distal ends of a first and second lever member.

The present set of embodiments relate to systems, methods, and apparatuses for sewing and quilting. More specifically, the present disclosure includes embodiments for seam removal from fabric(s) including cutting and removing threads in stitching. The systems, methods, and apparatuses include increasing efficiency of stitch removal by allowing a thread cutter and thread removal tool to be combined in a single tool that can actuate between a first position and a second position allowing for easy storage and customization of the in-use configuration of the tool to each individual sewer or quilter. Additionally, the present set of embodiments creates a tool that can be stored easily when not in use.

A lid handling device for assisting handling of a lid is provided. The lid handling device comprises an elongated body. A handle interacting structure is disposed at a first end portion of the elongated body. The handle interacting structure is adapted for interacting with a handle of the lid.

The present invention is related to a door opener multitool. The door opener multitool includes an opener member and a case member. The opener member and the case member are removably attached. A recess in a middle member of the opener member engages a pair of raised members on the case member to secure the opener member to the case member. A user may hold the opener member from the handle, and use the hook to grab door handle, drawer handle or the like to open such devices without directly contacting those surfaces. Such configuration allows an extra level of hygiene by allowing the user to avoid contacting frequently touched surfaces. The tip may also include a blunt end sized to push buttons. The case member allows hygienic and safe storage of the door opener multitool.

A disposable sanitary bathroom device configured to minimizes an individual's contact with bathroom bacteria via a flat end and a curved end manipulating critical touch points of a bathroom. A body of the device acts as a buffer between the bare hand of the user and the bathroom surface and can therefore be used to lift and lower a toilet seat as well as flush a toilet without having the user touch the with his/her hands. Parallel indented sides function as an ergonomic handle section to provide adequate grip and stability during use. The body is constructed from molded bathroom tissue. The flat end of the device is used to lift or lower a toilet seat. The curved end of the device is for flushing a toilet.
